    Happy New Year everyone! Here’s to a better 2021! Can’t complain financially because our NW has hit an all-time high at $3.4 million. DH will retire on Jan. 1/26 at 56 or sooner 🤞🏻

    Is the Motley Fool "Stock Advisor" really worth it?

    I used their recommendation to buy AcuityAds back in July and I’m so happy that I did. I’m up 300% in 5 months and the stock is taking off. There are rumors it could be the next TTD (The Trade Desk).

    Crazy times we’re living in right now! DH is starting to get serious about retiring in 5 years since work has been very stressful lately and he doesn’t know how much more he can take. We hit our personal NW goal of $3 million back in Dec. when DH turned 50, with $2 million in investable...

    Happy New Year! We hit our personal goal of reaching $3 million NW by the time DH hit 50, which was last month! [emoji322] Our NW is at $3.1 million. DH will keep working to at least 55 to keep padding the nest egg.

    NW is at an all-time high of $2.9 million. On target to hit $3 million by the end of the year (fingers crossed) when DH turns 50.

    Thanks! DH will probably continue to work past 50 since he enjoys his job (most days anyway). Since we’re now debt free, previous mortgage payments are now being used to top up the nest egg.

    Cashed in some investments this week and paid off our mortgage and HELOC. It’s a great feeling knowing we have zero debt! Merry Christmas everyone!

    New iPhones/Apple Watch?

    Never thought I’d go with yellow but I love it! On a side note, is your username your dog that’s in your avatar? Only reason I ask is because our dog is a Sunny as well and he looks similar!

    New iPhones/Apple Watch?

    I think I might give my 6 to my daughter. The trade-in credit was only about $75 for the 6.

    New iPhones/Apple Watch?

    I was leaning towards the red but it was pretty dark when I actually saw it in the store. The yellow is great!

    New iPhones/Apple Watch?

    I thought I would but not at all! Took me about 5 minutes to get used to it. I love the bigger screen compared to the 6.

    New iPhones/Apple Watch?

    Well, I finally opened up the purse strings and bought the new XR (definitely an upgrade from the iPhone 6)! Loving it so far! Bought the yellow colour!

    What color iphone XR for guys?

    I always use a clear TPU silicone case. It’s clear so the back of the phone and colour is visible and provides enough grip (haven’t dropped an iPhone yet!).

    What color iphone XR for guys?

    I’m thinking of getting the red one myself. However, I’ve read early reviews saying that the yellow XR looks incredible. I think I’d feel self-conscious with yellow though.

    New iPhones/Apple Watch?

    Yup, 4 years old and still looks brand new. I got a new battery 6 months ago and updated it to OS12 which made it faster. I might keep it until Apple no longer supports the 6 with updated software. The new XR sure looks pretty though!

    NW has hit a new all-time high: $2.75 million. Trying to get to $3 million by the end of 2019 when DH hits 50.

    New iPhones/Apple Watch?

    I’m tempted to get the iPhone XR in order to save close to $300 vs. the XS (plus I like the variety of colours). However, the cheap side of me says I don’t need a new phone since my iPhone 6 still works perfectly fine.
